It's Sunday, our day of no travel.  Well,  very little. Big Sur,  Redwood Forest,
and the California coast up to Carmel the Salinas.    Big, Very BIG trees,  Stopped
to see some vultures eating somebody on the side of the road,   then up the coast.   Beautiful
scenery,   had to stand on edge of cliff to get pictures.  The road winds up the hills all along
water and cliffs edge.  The mother white knuckled it all the way to Carmel.   Salinas is
where The Mother lived many, many years age.  Found the house where she lived.  Cool.
Tomorrow we go to Walnut Creek outside of San Fransisco.  Mothers Grandmother
lived there.   After that we head north toward Portland.   Rol'n  on.

  1. Are you going to go to the Paul Bunyan (Spelling?) Redwood forest? We went there one year, unfortunately they didn't have the hours posted and when we went to leave we found ourselves locked in with a bear not far off in the distance. But it was beautiful and they have one of the biggest/oldest redwoods in there. Plus there's a huge Paul Bunyan and the blue ox statue.
